Greenhouse Heating 



I't 



Is a perplexing question to all florists 

 except tliose using 



Morehead Steam Traps 



HAVK you ever talked wltb a brother norlat wbo uses Morebead Return 

 Steam Traps? If not, do so at first opportunity and be convinced tbat 

 you must install one at once. 



Ttiere are more MORBHEAD TRAPS installed in greenliouses than of all other 

 makes of steam traps combined. The Morehead is distinctly a florist's trap. Every 

 feature of its construction has been treated with a view of meeting the special needs 

 of the florist.

should be placed on the wall plates, and 

 ten 1^-inch returns should be placed 

 under the benches. While it* will be 

 better to use the 1^-inch size for re- 

 turn pipes, if it is desired to make use 

 of the 2-inch pipes on hand for the re- 

 turns, only eight will be needed. In 

 case any of the houses are to be used 

 for carnations, eight 1^4 -inch or six 

 2-inch returns will be sufficient. 



PIPING FOR THREE HOUSES. 



To heat three houses I have only 

 one hot water boiler, which has but 

 three 4-inch outlets and three 4-inch 

 inlets, allowing one outlet and one in- 

 let for each house. Is that enough? 

 What is the best way to connect the 

 boiler with the three 2%-inch flows of 

 each house I The houses are piped as 

 follows: The top of the heater is 

 about two feet lower than the returns. 

 [ use three 2i/^-inch flows for each 

 house, and each flow is connected with 

 four 2-inch returns. Each flow, after 

 rising six or eight inches from the 

 heater, runs a few feet to the house 

 it heats, then up four or five feet and 

 along the eave plates with a slight 

 drop, to the farther end of the house. 

 There it drops and is connected with

 STANDARD. 



MADE IN 9 SIZES 



The SUPERIOR STANDARD is designed specially for greenhouse 

 work after a close study of what was needed. It is easily cleaned, al- 

 though it has more flues than any other boiler, but— more flues give more 

 heat; more flues require less fuel; the water heats quicker and hotter, 

 because the volume of water heated by each flue is smaller.
